• In St John 5 speaks of Jesus as being the Great Physician. He heals the impotent man at the pool.
• Many believers suffer and struggle in this area of their Salvation because they lack the power and ability to do the Will of God written.
• For this the Jews sought out to kill Him because they accused Him of breaking the Sabbath.
• Jesus had broken or violated their tradition and religious customs of the sabbath by healing an impotent man at the pool of Bethesda.
• Impotent means unable to take effective action; helpless or powerless; lacking power or ability to do something; (of a man) abnormally unable to achieve a sexual erection
• He had broken the Sabbath, but also said that God was His Father making Himself equal with God in their sight. So, they challenged His divinity.
• Jesus Christ had to defend his actions as being the works of the Father and not His though He and the Father are One.
• Jesus broke it down to them for their understanding in St John 5:19-20 by answering them to say that He as a Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do. Whatever the Father does, the Son does likewise.
• That should prompt all of us that witness, preach, teach, and minister the Gospel; all that lay hands on folks to speak a Word to encourage or prophesy to their soul that we can do nothing of ourselves. We can do nothing without the Father allowing it, then showing it to us to do just like He did with His Son Jesus.
• St John 5:30-47 Read

• Satan has concocted many spiritual counterfeiters called tares, but Jesus and the Father has said let the wheat and the tares grow together He will separate them in the time of their harvest. (St Matthew 13:24-43).
• Counterfeit means made in exact imitation of something valuable or important with the intention to deceive or defraud; a fraudulent imitation of something else; a forgery; imitate fraudulently.
• To counterfeit means to imitate something authentic, with the intent to kill, steal, and destroy to replace the original, for evil and wickedness to deceive individuals into believing that the fake is of equal or greater value than the real product of God Himself.
• St Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
• 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
• Satan has sent out many wolves dressed in sheep clothing today saying Jesus.
• 2 Corinthians 11:13-15 13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14 And marvel not; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
• Satan marks his own with a symbol of ownership just as the Lord seals His own.
• Their fruit is in their works! So, know them by their fruit.
• What are the marks of Satan’s fruit? The marks of Satan’s fruit are his influence over your flesh and in this world as your behavior, mannerism, and actions align with the evil, wicked, and sinful nature such as the works of the flesh found in Galatians 5:19-21.
• You must have spiritual discernment and Wisdom to rightly divide the difference between the fruits of evil and the righteousness. And you will have to choose which one you will serve.
• This is why the Word of God teaches us to mortify our flesh, its senses, and its works so we can walk in the Spirit and not fulfill the lust and influence of our flesh.
• Jesus called Satan the “prince of this world” in St John 12:31-32 31 Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out. 32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto Me.
• What are marks of the fruit of righteousness? The marks of the fruit of righteousness in Christ Jesus is the transforming power of God in the lives of those that believe in Him through His Son Jesus.
• The righteousness of God is through faith in Jesus. There is no distinction!
• Be perfected by the Spirit of God in Wisdom and Spiritual discernment in the character of Jesus found in Galatians 5:22-23, against such there is no law that can come against and prevail (prove to be more powerful than any opposing forces; be victorious).
• Many of who we know through flesh and blood relations, we are married to them, or we are in some form of fellowship with them because it feels good, appears to be good, and we love to believe it is from the Spirit of God.
• In these last, evil, and wicked days where the imagination of the thoughts of man’s heart seems like it has gone farther than evil, wickedness, and deception, though it has not, because even that is on schedule.
• Because many believers are saying they love the Spirit of God from a lip service trying to deceive God by not accepting ALL His Word and Will by faking the authenticity of His Spirituality in Man.
• And for that God will send them strong delusions, that they should believe a lie, 2 Thessalonians 2:11.
• Have you played Russian roulette so with your soul that you are now delusional based on having faulty judgment or perception that caused you to reject and not receive the love of the truth through Jesus so that you might be saved from sin and death, and delivered?
• Satan charms many from the knowledge of God by gaining influence through illusions of what the Spirit of God is like to those that have bowed down to him and operate in the flesh. Satan will never show God’s true holiness, though he has a knowledge of it but will just imitate it enough to keep you under his rule of bondage and servitude to him.
• This is why you should STOP feeling the Spirit of God because it is not possible for you as a spirit being to feel God.
• Learn to change your word terminology. ALL words carry a spirit!
• Satan distorts the 5-senses by producing a false and misleading image of the Spirit of God and His righteousness through the human perception of reality, not spirituality. This causes the stimulation of your senses to become illusional based upon a deceptive appearance or impression, not expression but impression of the flesh and its feelings in activation to call it the Spirit of God. This false idea of being spiritual but practical becomes a false idea and belief to those that surrender to it.

In closing,

• Who is your spiritual witness in the earth that can testify on your behalf that Jesus is your Lord and Savior?
• Who is your spiritual advisor in the earth that can go into the Presence of God and testify of God’s Will being done in you before God?
• Jesus said in St John 5:39 to search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of Me.
• Does your spirituality testify of Jesus Christ in the earth since you’ve been saved?
• Search the scriptures, they are your instructions and guide to all truth and eternal life in Christ.
• Search the scriptures to see if you really know Jesus, if you really have His heart, His mind, His Spirit, His character, His spiritual discipline, His obedience, and His faith.
• Search the scriptures to see if you’re being spiritually drawn and attracted by God to come to Jesus with God giving you a desire to come to Jesus. (St John 6:44).
• Search the scriptures yourself! Don’t take no one’s word for them. Take the Spirit of the Word’s testimony of Jesus to see if you see Jesus in you. If so, then you will be able to see what God sees in you also.
• The same way the Spirit of God spoke to acknowledge Jesus as His beloved Son in whom He was well-pleased with God will do the same with you when He sees the image of His Son after their likeness. (St Matthew 17:5).
• Jesus was not about the life of fun and pleasure when He came to earth, and neither should He be in you that are in the earth.
• Spiritual counterfeiters copy, paste, and imitate what appears to spirituality to them and their feelings, having no wisdom r spiritual discernment or an individual relationship with the Spirit of God.
• If the Spirit of the Word don’t testify for you to the world, the flesh, and the devil then what or who will?

Amen
